Our Daily Bread designs April New Releases!!

Hi, everyone!! Welcome to the Our Daily Bread designs April New Release party!!! It may be April Fool's Day, but there are no pranks here.....just some gorgeous new stamps and dies to share with you!!! Below are the new (and previously released) items featured in my post today:

My first project features the new 'How Great Thou Art' set, along with the eagle image from 'On Eagles' Wings', and the mountain scene from 'Keep Climbing'. The song lyric and mountains were stamped in black onto a white panel, the mountains and trees were colored with sponge daubers and markers, the clouds were sponged over a scalloped circle. The eagle was stamped on a separate piece of cardstock, colored with sponge daubers and markers, fussy cut, then popped up with foam tape. Paper piercing, metal brads, and linen thread were added as embellishments.

My second sample features two sentiments from 'Shower of Blessings', the ODBD Custom 'Umbrellas' Dies, the ODBD Custom 'Clouds and Raindrops' Dies, and two patterns from the ODBD 'Shabby Rose' Paper Collection. I had fun using the 'Negative Die Cut' technique with the new dies....the umbrella outline and clouds were cut away from the panel, then the die cut umbrella sections were inset into the negative. The 'Rain, Rain, go away' sentiment is actually one stamp, but I stamped one half at a time in order to balance out the card. I guess I was in a 'kraft' mood, since I used kraft cardstock and linen thread on this project as well! :)

Angie girl…you crank out the most gorgeous cards! Love how your mind works! The eagle card is just amazing! Love the negative space and the split sentiment on the second umbrella card, and the last card is just darling! Fabulous release projects, my friend! Hugs!

You are so creative, Angie!! I just love your scene on the first card with the mountains and stanza from Amazing Grace!! The clouds are gorgeous!! The use of the negative die cuts for the clouds and umbrella is beautiful and clever. Love it...as I do all your work!!hugs,Chris

Oh my goodness Angie you are amazing!!! Seriously amazing!!! You just keep cranking out amazing designs and each one is beautiful!!! Love the eagle and mountains on the first one... exactly the perfect images to inspire one to think of His majesty! Your clouds are just so cute on the second one! Love that you used the negative space, and the little girl card couldn't be cuter on the pretty lacey square!hugs,Grace

Angie - wow wow wow!! Your first card is so striking and the scene with that perfect sentiment gave me goosebumps. It's awesome! Your second card is so creative with the negative space and soft sponging - another wonderful creation! And your sneak peek card - what a delight!! Thank you for the inspiration!Hugs,Audrey

Oh my Angie, such a wonderful way of combining all these different stamps to make the scene and to go with the new sentiments and your use of the negatives in the second card is just wonderful, sure to cheer someone up!

Love all your cards! The fussy cutting on the eagle is fantabulous. Neat effect with the negative die cutting on the umbrella card, too. Both great masculine cards. And the castle in your last card is wonderful. Nice contrast to the other two. Tfs! ~ Andrea
